Hello-
since the exact reason for back pain is not mentioned, try these tips to minimize back pain-
1. Get more exercise. Regular physical activity can help ease inflammation and muscle tension.
2. Watch your weight.
Extra pounds, especially in your midsection, can make back pain worse by shifting your center of gravity and putting strain on your lower back. 3. If you smoke, stop. Smoking restricts the flow of nutrient-containing blood to spinal discs, so smokers are especially vulnerable to back pain.
4. Sleeping position.
Prefer to sleep on your back.
5. Pay attention to your posture. The best chair for preventing back pain is one with a straight back or low-back support. Keep your knees a bit higher than your hips while seated.
6. Be careful how you lift.
7. Lighten your wallet.
Sitting on an overstuffed wallet may cause discomfort and back pain.
8. Wear an orthopedic belt.
It provide support to the muscles adjoining the vertebrae thus minimizes pain.

Ashwagandharistha 2 tsp twice daily
trayodashanga guggulu 2 tab twice daily
rheumasyl liniment for massage in affected area.

Hi thanks for your query and welcome to lybrate. I am Dr. Akshay from fortis hospital, new delhi.
Actually `there are very few conditions in orthopaedics which will cause rib cage pain, usually it can be upper back pain radiating to sides or sometimes there can be inflammation of the costochondral junctions where ribs join the sternum, we have to see whether there is any other medical cause to it. My advise is to take a short course of anti-inflammatory medication which suits you, start with physical therapy and see whats happening in 10 days time, otherwise I will advise few blood tests for you as well as an opinion from a pulmonologist/chest physician. Do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further assistance.
